THE SECOND PART OF HENRY THE FOURTH CONTAINING HIS DEATH: AND THE CORONATION OF KING HENRY THE FIFT (ca.1597–8)

2 HENRY IV was first printed in 1600. Copy for this Quarto (which appears in two distinct states Qa & Qb) was likely Shakespeare’s foul papers; whereas copy for the First Folio’s version of the play was probably a promptbook (or transcript thereof). F contains additional matter.

PLOT & COLOURING

Characters may be separated into three groups:

• The REBELS’ party:

LORD BARDOLPH

NORTHUMBERLAND

ARCH. OF YORK

MOWBRAY

LADY NORTHUMBERLAND

LADY PERCY

• The KING’S party:

HENRY IV

WARWICK

WESTMORELAND

PRINCE JOHN

CLARENCE

PRINCE HAL

LORD CHIEF JUSTICE

• The CLOWNS:

FALSTAFF

MISTRESS QUICKLY

BARDOLPH

DOLL TEARSHEET

PISTOL

JUSTICE SHALLOW.

• Though they are manifestly both of the King’s party neither PRINCE HAL (the future HENRY V) nor the LORD CHIEF JUSTICE are — dramatically speaking — clearly affiliated with it. Rather, they are COMICAL until the end of ACT 2, REGAL in ACT 5.
